I have seen this posted before and my solution to make it work with the 7800’s and newer EFI network booting was to use an older FOG kernel from the web interface. I forget which one it was.
One thread mentioned using ACPI=OFF in the kernel parameters but this prevents EFI network book.
The 7800’s will make it to the fog menu but fail to deploy so I have set up a group named Legacy that uses the ACPI=OFF parameter. No way to test this yet. I am not on sight to test any of this ATM.
Like other members here there are a couple of DC5800’s those do not even make it to the boot menu but that isn’t really important.
Is there some other parameter I should use that would allow both?
Depending on which kernel I use;
I’ll see this.

Other kernels this;

And as mentioned before using an older kernel from a year or so ago, I don’t have any problems with the 7800 and can EFI network book from other workstations. But there has to be something I’m missing that is preventing me from using the latest FOG kernel.
Any ideas?
Thank you.
I love FOG
